From far away, a voice recalled Me to the days gray, gone, and old Dear mother tucked me in to bed And warned me of the night ahead Of the many monsters lying in wait For an innocent child to bite the bait From head to toe, they'd eat you whole Skin and hair and bones and all But daylight it was when uncle Strouss Brought Teddy into his colorful house His dad's brother helped him unbutton While in the frame, Jesus looked on And don't forget, it was a bright day With Dianne there along the walkway Wearing her shorts; the weather was hot But those who saw her called her **** It was a good time, Lyda thought To try out the new dress she bought But men around her looked at her funny Eyes all over her temple, her body Mike went out for a drink with Sybill He didn't know that drink had a little pill The next day he woke up stark naked in bed Beside the monster he thought was his friend Among necktied men, Jenny sat busy Focused on work for a 6-digit salary But some monsters are pros too, chum And he felt her up and left her mum And as I tuck you in to bed, my child I will tell you all this world is scary and wild It is never safe for you and Teddy, And Dianne and Lyda and Mike and Jenny

Nowhere Is Safe
From far away, a voice recalled Me to the days gray, gone, and old Dear mother tucked me in to bed And warned me of the night ahead Of the many monsters lying in wait For an innocent child to bite the bait From head to toe, they'd eat you whole Skin and hair and bones and all But daylight it was when uncle Strouss Brought Teddy into his colorful house His dad's brother helped him unbutton While in the frame, Jesus looked on And don't forget, it was a bright day With Dianne there along the walkway Wearing her shorts; the weather was hot But those who saw her called her **** It was a good time, Lyda thought To try out the new dress she bought But men around her looked at her funny Eyes all over her temple, her body Mike went out for a drink with Sybill He didn't know that drink had a little pill The next day he woke up stark naked in bed Beside the monster he thought was his friend Among necktied men, Jenny sat busy Focused on work for a 6-digit salary But some monsters are pros too, chum And he felt her up and left her mum And as I tuck you in to bed, my child I will tell you all this world is scary and wild It is never safe for you and Teddy, And Dianne and Lyda and Mike and Jenny
